Using Aspire for Text

[dauteuil]

Be careful with typography.
All the characters of the same typeface are not the same height.
The "O,S,G" mainly rounded letters are always higher than the others,
to visually compensate for the extra void they leave beside them.
If these were of the exact same height as the rest of the alphabet, they would appear smaller and out of place. Try it, you'll see.
So, careful when dimensioning letters individually.
I always take my dimensions from a square letter such as M or T and let the rest flow.

Very good advise and I will use it, thanks for your reply.

Draw a rectangle to the desired height and manually stretch the text diagonally to fit.

Novelty fonts such as Curls MT are prone to issues such as this.

That's how I would approach it. Draw a box 20" high and estimate the length of the text (does not really matter much). Decide which letters you want 20" high, or chose the one that works out tallest in height. Expand the text to fit the chosen letters in the box and the job is done.
